Makeup Palettes: Explore the Wonders of Colour

Step into a world of colour and dare to be different with a new eyeshadow palette to create endless looks from statement-making bold to attention-grabbing metallic. This season is all about discovering colour and letting your distinct style shine through with dramatic mixings and fascinating pairings. But getting there can be intimidating at first. Let Sephora show you how to get your boldest colour look effortlessly so you can begin living in colour immediately. Here are three trends we think you’ll love to rock in your next #motd.

Look 1: Block Party

At Sephora, we don’t believe colours ever clash and we are unafraid of mixing the wildest pairings. This look is all about bold colour blocking with unexpected shades. Choose bright colours like yellow, red, and pink and use them to draw graphic shapes that play off your eye shape — think triangles and exaggerated wings. Instead of blending, let each colour block stand alone for a more dramatic, graphic look. Top it off with a touch of sheer shimmer or highlight along the brow bone and in the inner corner of the eye.

Look 2: Boho Chic

Soft looks can still be bold. Get in the flow of festival season with a sun-kissed complexion and bohemian makeup. Start with a more demure matte eyeshadow, like a peach-tone base all over the eyelid. Then experiment with eye contouring using a mix of rich, neutral eyeshadows like brown and caramel and glow-giving metallic eyeshadows like bronze and gold to create a smokey shimmer effect. Pair with a nude lipstick to complete the look (and, yes, we have plenty of lipstick palettes to help with that, too).

Look 3: Space Disco

This look is for the truly glitter-obsessed girl who know there’s no such thing as too much glitter. Heap it on for a futuristic rebel take on colour love. To get this look, opt for electronic shades of blue or green and black with a slick sheen. Then add on shimmers, silver, and high-shine finishes to create a trippy kaleidoscope effect. Finish with glitter anywhere you want it—highlight your cheekbones, dab it on the lips, spread it along your collarbone—you get it, anywhere.

No matter how you live out loud in colour, there’s a makeup palette (or two) to help you get there. Meet the wonders of colour when you shop online at Sephora!
